For the needs of the challenge, Riga Airport will gather plane noise measurements and atmospheric mannequin information, take part within the growth of air high quality and noise evaluation indicators, definition of information sources in different airports and growth of airport operations state of affairs and impression evaluation.
Riga Airport has concluded a cooperation settlement in a world examine on using low-emission plane applied sciences and the probabilities of decreasing air air pollution and noise emissions close to the airport with the assistance of revolutionary applied sciences.
The challenge Integration and Digital Demonstration of Low Emission Plane Applied sciences and Airport Operations (INDIGO) can be applied by ten collaborating organizations in 5 nations, together with the College Carlos III of Madrid in Spain, the Universities of Strathclyde and Bristol in Nice Britain, the Bochum Technical College in Germany, the German Aerospace Analysis Centre, Italian Aerospace Analysis Centre, and Riga Airport.
“Actual progress in direction of aviation sustainability is feasible solely within the course of of data switch and cooperation between tutorial science, creators of improvements and practitioners who handle processes at airports every day. We’re happy that it’s Riga Airport that turns into the reference airport within the examine, which is carried out by internationally extremely rated companions and whose essential objective is a sustainable aviation business,” says Laila Odiņa, Chairperson of the Board of Riga Airport.
For the needs of the challenge, Riga Airport will gather plane noise measurements and atmospheric mannequin information, take part within the growth of air high quality and noise evaluation indicators, definition of information sources in different airports and growth of airport operations state of affairs and impression evaluation.
The purpose of the INDIGO challenge is to find out the potential advantages what can be ensured from using a brand new sort of medium-sized plane powered by hybrid electrical propulsion and capable of fly ultra-quiet and with minimal emissions close to airports however utilizing standard or sustainable aviation gas – at larger altitudes – for enhancing air high quality and decreasing noise ranges close to airports. The challenge is financed by the Horizon programme of the European Union.
